For The Stealthiest...

[Dman979]

No, if you post a picture of any stealth plane which is not your prototype you get 5 points. Heck, you could post your F-22- it's stealth, right? See above, or Mad Rocket Scientist's F-19 entry.

Oh dang, so like, can I do more than one? I was gonna make a B-2 as well XD F-35 is considered stealth too right?

[Starwhip]

I would post screenshots, but I can make ascii art that has better graphics than the old laptop.

Progress, I've made a 1-ton JDAM. Fin guidance.

I'll be building this from the bomb bay outwards.

It's obsolete but it's still a stealth fighter, so yes. Remember to post the teaser of a non-prototype!

Looking good! I see you're aiming for Signed by the Author, yes? But don't forget to add landing gear, like the Engineer's Report said!

Gosh darn it, it has too much drag.

EDIT:

Was the real one more stable upside-down? This one is.

I don't even...

[Dman979]

Looks like you're also shooting for Wobblin' Goblin. Keep it up!

[sgt_flyer]

well, given the wingform, with no dihedral or anhedral wing shape, it's no wonder it's more stable upside down ^^

[Starwhip]

IT'S SO BUGGY!

Half of it seems to generate more drag than the other, the bombs will NOT decouple at the same time, airbrake bomb bays won't respond to action groups...

EDIT:

What the heck?! I said don't respond to the brakes key, you stupid little things! FIVE TIMES!

Grrrrrr...

the airbrakes are bugged currently you can't unbind them from 'brake'

Gosh durn it.

Welp, I'm scrapping this one. Can't fly it. Can't land it.

This doesn't help:

I'll try structural panels next time.

EDIT:

Frame is done.

Why don't you just use a Mk 2 bay for a bomb pod and build the plane around it? That's what My plans are anyways.

Because the bottom of the real F-117 is flat, and the MK2 bay is not.

Though, it would be a helluva lot simpler to do it like that...

With some cleverness, you could still use the bay and make the bottom flat. I believe in you.

Darn you! Don't believe in me!

[Dman979]

Starwhip, this is a lot of fun to watch. Keep up the headbanging!

[Starwhip]

Okay, engines are go.

Now to somehow make an outside frame...

[Dman979]

As I said, really, really fun to watch. Did you completely restart your build, or was that just me?

Nope. Not just you.

This one is 100% better!

Just did a test run. Flies like a charm. (No yaw control, though. Reaction wheels time! )

[Dman979]

Now I can give you the 5 points for F-19, b/c your plane was scrapped and rebuilt from the ground up. What dedication!

[Starwhip]

[Endersmens]

wow star, that texture and rendering quality tho' XD

Oi. Get of mah structural panels. Grrrrrrr. Really hyped about what you can do!

Your laptop actually can handle it? Looks high on part count. I know I can
